Some initial thoughts on SiteGround (no full review!)

So I have been moving a rather large website to them recently and they had it moved after 3 hours of the placement of my order (which was 1:00 at night). They set everything up and ready to run rather quickly. The daily backup & restore feature is awesome and acctually works! The phone hotline is acctually a hotline. Called 5 times so far and NEVER had to wait. Always got a support agent right away who was 1) willing to help and 2) knew how to without any further forwarding/redirecting. Live Chat is also always online it seems and responds swiftly. Tickets are replied to in 1-3 hours (somewhere on the website they mention a 10 minute initial ticket reply time frame but I don't know if they really mean that).
The webserver is performant aswell and their WordPress "SG Optimizer" is helpful. So far so good :P Any bad experiences anyone made with them? Let me know (here or PM) :P

  • Their resource limits (such as CPU limits) seem too strict. Any thoughts there?

    It's been working fine for the website I host there. Not the highest limits though.

    I had one instance where the Google bot went nuts on a new site with 8k products and ate my month's CPU in a couple of days. They were cool about it. I slowed the allowable crawl rate and they reset my CPU limit.

    The go geek plan with staging & git is very handy.
